Untroubled Echeveria

#82d897
Notes

Untroubled Echeveria (#82D897) is a true green with a cool character. It leans cool, sitting on the blue, green, and violet side of the wheel. Quiet and dependable, a fit for product UI and data visualization. Its HSL profile (135°, 52%, 68%) places it in the balanced band at a mid lightness. It works across type, buttons, and borders, saturated enough to feel deliberate but balanced enough to not fight the rest of the palette. For a confident two-color system, pair it with its complementary magenta. For something softer, pull in its analogous neighbors on either side of the wheel.

Etymology

Untroubled
adjective

Latin turbāre, to disturb — negative-prefix un- plus past-participle of trouble. As a color modifier, untroubled implies a clear-and-calm-and-undisturbed quality where the hue carries no visual agitation. Sits at the crisp-and-calm end of the grid, parallel to serene and placid in usage.

Echeveria
noun

The genus Echeveria — Mexican rosette-forming succulents named for the eighteenth-century botanical illustrator Atanasio Echeverría y Godoy. Cultivated globally as ornamental plants for their geometric blue-green form. The color refers to a fresh Echeveria elegans rosette: a soft, slightly cool silver-green-blue with the matte velvet finish of waxy succulent leaves.
